Root hider for Magisk that actually works? - General Questions and Answers

I have a Xiaomi mi mix 2s running a xiaomi.eu ROM that I rooted so that I could use gpay. Now google pay works, but a ton of other apps broke, seems like everything checks for root these days -_-. Magiskhide is set up but it doesn't do anything, and deleting the magisk app only works for some apps.
Is there a root cloaker out there that actually works?

To see whether Android is rooted or not an app simply has to look for entry persist.sys.root_access in Android's system file named build.prop or test on existence of file su in Android's file system.

[List] Apps that break android pay

I have been trying to find a way to keep root and Android pay. Some apps, while they are granted root privileges, break android pay.
I don't have a large list. But as of now, the apps cause my device to fail the SafetyNet check are:
Titanium Backup
Root explorer
Ex kernel manager
It seems that it only breaks pay when these apps are actively using root. "Killing" the apps send to make my device pass the check.
As people comment I'll update the list.
I'm using EX Kernel Manager with systemless root, and Android Pay still works for me.
EXkernel manager doesn't break it.
Greenify definitely breaks it.
adaway breaks it unless you flash the systemless hosts zip file prior to installing/applying it
root features of nova launcher don't break it
wakelock detector does not break it
Using Titanium backup, Root explorer, ex kernel mngr, and adaway 3.01 I think no different install methods, clean install yesterday. First time using systemless root. AP worked today at Walgreen's.

Apps don't break Android Pay, the method on how you root does.

I'm also using Greenify and Adaway. Neither has broken Android Pay.
I'm using Titanium Backup, EX Kernel Manager, Root Explorer, and AdAway as well. Android Pay works fine.
Successfully using all those apps, including Greenify (missing the xposed module though). Not a problem with AP, have used it about 4 times in the past week.
Quick update to all. I've noticed that when some of my apps are open, they cause the "SafetyNet helper" to fail. That's why I say it "breaks" it.
AP till works for me. But it can be spotty if I just opened a root app
Must be a really long line and you're backing up apps, searching for a file, or changing your color profile while waiting to tap.
Edit: OK I had AP fail last night when I unlocked my phone eBay was opened up. Apparently I just locked my phone. closed out eBay and chrome popped up from my last tab. Got to my home screen and AP was good to go.

How can I Spoof in Pokemon GO Android Oreo

Hello I would like to know if there is a way to spoof in Android Oreo I have recently purchased a Verizon Google pixel 2 (5 inches) I have already unlocked bootloader, rooted with magisk, I have pass the app to priv-app with the right permissions.
At the appninjas help from Fake GPS Joystick says Oreo users have to edit 2 xml files one you have to create and the another edit from Permissions folder. I already did but I still can't use it. Maybe I'm doing something wrong.
The app launchs but I can't enable the private mode and I get the GPS error at game and nothing appears when I activate the Fake GPS already cloned of course with the own apk tool privacy.
I upload the xml files already edited I don't know if I made it correctly
I faced this problem after updating to 8.1 on my Oneplus 5T. I used Magisk module App systemizer terminal to succesfully move Gps Joystick app to /system/private app. So now spoofings working again without location errors and without smalipatcher (not compatible yet with 8.1).
I think this will work on other 8.1 roms too.
I just got a OnePlus 5t and updated to Oreo. I just want to check a few steps:
1. Unlock bootloader
2. Install twrp
3. Root with magisk
4. Move to system / priv-app with twrp (or should I use the magisk module?)
5. Run the game
Is that correct?
I have a note 3 working properly with the steps I mentioned above. Is it all I need?

Converting a user app to system app corrupts phone on 9.0

Does anyone have experience with turning a user app into a system app on 9.0?
I tried using terminal emulator + app systemizer on magisk and Link2DS both ways have corrupted the phone.

Are you able to recover? If so, you may have to settle without it. I know Systemizer works on 8.1, but I didn't try it on 9.0 before I downgraded. I'm not aware of any other options besides manually moving it, but that would break your systemless root, and would also need to be done after every update.
If you can't recover but can get into fastboot, you can boot into TWRP and flash "Magisk Mount". That will allow you to remove the Systemizer module manually from the Magisk image and boot back into the OS. As for Link2SD, I've never used it, so I'm not sure what changes it made that would have to be undone in order to recover.

As long as you dont care about remaining systemless and passing SafetyNet, you could simply move the apk folder into the system app folder manually. You could do it either through TWRP's built in file manager, or do it live with a root capable file manager. Either way should work.
Again, it's not ideal as it will trip SafetyNet and must be done after every ROM update/flash. So, if you have anything that depends on SafetyNet, that's not an option for you.
Another possibility would be to look at the Magisk documentation for module building and make your own module which would inject whatever apk you need systemlessly. You could accelerate the learning process by downloading one that already does something similar and reverse engineering it to fit your needs.

Can't use banking app after app installation anymore

Hi all,
Let's tell you my story,
OP6, unlocked, no TWRP, Magisk 20.3 (safetynet is OK) , I used to use my contactless payement app (French Banque populaire app called "Paiement mobile") thanks to Magisk hide, never had to pay more attention to hide root, no need to hide manager, always works with Magisk Hide only.
Updating from OOS 10.3.2 to 10.3.3 and Magisk 20.4.
Everything seems to me fine. I launch once the payement app, no warning.
Thinking about tweaking to make work VoLTE, I tried to find a way to easly save precious data (can't remember the name of the partition name), and finally found that Wanam created an app called "Partition backup and restore" which do that job.
I Installed it and accepted to grant root access.
And at this moment, I got a toast message from my bank app tells me it has detected a security problem.
Since the message, evreytime I open the bank app, it detected the root...
I tried to reinstall it, verify hiding, clear caches, uninstall the partition backup app, contact Wanam, he doesn't understand how his app can reveal the root to my bank app, hide Magisk manager, disable dev mode, oem debug, phone permission to Google Play Services and other, and maybe other things I don't remember... Read so many threads...
My other root-needed apps work.
Rootbear tells me all is OK except BUSYBOX BINARY (can't find something about it).
You're my last chance before getting stock with MSMTool (don't need root anymore).
Thanks in advance guys.
Edit : used Msmtool to go back to stock. No more problem.

DisableFlagSecure not working, Pixel3, Android 9.0

I am using EdXposed, and have tried all the DisableFlagSecure modules, and also used Smali to add a module to Magisk to achieve the same result. None of it works.
I am using a Pixel 3 with Android Pie. I do not really want to update to 10 because then I won't be able to write to the system folder if I ever want to.
Am I missing something easy? Other modules in EdXposed and Magisk work OK, and I have a feeling this module is doing what is supposed to do, but there is something that is keeping it from triggering.
